Abstract

In this paper, a unified framework was applied to derive compact polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) features under general transmit and linear receive polarization conditions. Following the rationale of polarization signature, the characteristics of features derived by transmission of variant roll angles and ellipticity are analyzed. Statistical distance was proposed to quantitatively measure the performance of these compact polarimetric SAR features on marine oil spill classification. Experiment was conducted on a Radarsat-2 quad-pol SAR scene acquired during a controlled oil-on-water exercise.
